I thoroughly enjoyed the Museum. It was the first time I had visited the New de Young and it was impressive. We went there with no real plan or expectation. Just to see it and wander a bit. I was so unprepared for the adventure that when the cashier person asked if I wanted to pay extra to see the YSL exhibit I wondered silently (thankfully) why the Youth Soccer League would have anything at the de Young! Fortunately I came to my artistic senses before looking for a soccer ball. It was a wide ranging adventure, from the early south American creations to the modern arts and crafts exhibit to the sculpture of various styles and sizes. The glass exhibit were as fascinating as ever. It was a pleasant surprise to be walking right up to pieces of art by artist I had only had the opportunity to read about previously. There was one exhibit that was the artists statement about religion and war, with his creations made completely out of bullets and guns, it grabbed your attention. I'm looking forward to returning soon. Oh Yea, the top story observation deck is a must, BEAUTIFUL VIEWS!
